Whale watching Gold Coast reviews
From a guest on our whale watching tour:
Amazing team and a whale watching experience of a lifetime!
Forget the large boats, here you will be close and agile and you have a crew who does everything to ensure you get to see, hear and feel these incredible creatures of our seas.
Highly recommended!

Swim with whales reviews
These reviews are from guests on our swim with whales tour.
I can't say enough how fantastic our whale swim adventure was, from start to finish.
What an incredible experience! Swimming with whales has always been a bucket list item for me, so this trip was amazing. Lachlan the captain and Kas the guide were amazing with how they ran the whole tour and their knowledge of whales and the area. They knew which whales to just watch and which ones to jump in the water with. He tracked down a whale that was breaching so many times, we lost count and even breached right near the boat! Easily one of the best experiences I have had so highly, highly recommend doing it!!

Thanks to Lachie and his crew for one of the best wildlife experiences we have had.
Lachie is so knowledgeable and was committed to giving us the best experience possible. The whales welfare was also paramount, as it should be. The crew were super friendly and patient and made us all feel safe with our induction and time in and out of the water. Will definitely go again! A huge thank you to the crew!
Highly recommended!

The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip so enjoyable. We were lucky to see an abundance of turtles and other incredible marine life up close - truly amazing! Highly recommend for anyone looking to connect with nature and have an amazing day out on the water!

We had a fabulous day with the Cooly Eco team, swimming with turtles around Cook Island.
The experience was magical, the guides were knowledgable, and the memories will last a lifetime! Highly recommended.

To confirm with Lachy: the reviewer's surname is printed two ways on the live home page (Renee bertulos and Renee Bertolus). Which spelling is right?
What guests say makes the best whale watching on the Gold Coast
Across these reviews, the same things come up: a small boat with a maximum of 12 guests, a crew who know the whales and the area, and whale welfare put first. If that sounds like your kind of trip, see prices or read what to expect.
To confirm with Lachy: which review platform should this page link to or embed live (Google Business Profile, Rezdy or TripAdvisor)?
